The SIS epidemic model with Markovian switching [PDF]
, 2012 Population systems are often subject to environmental noise. Motivated by Takeuchi et al. (2006), we will discuss in this paper the effect of telegraph noise on the well-known SIS epidemic model.

Pneumococcal vaccination and chronic respiratory diseases
International Journal of Chronic Obstructive Pulmonary Disease, 2017 Patients with COPD and other chronic respiratory diseases are especially vulnerable to viral and bacterial pulmonary infections, which are major causes of exacerbations, hospitalization, disease progression, and mortality in COPD patients. Effective vaccines could reduce the burden of respiratory infections and acute exacerbations in COPD patients, but

Molecular Microbiology, EarlyView.COL is an unusual “model” strain of Staphylococcus aureus that exhibits slow growth and multidrug antibiotic tolerance. This phenotype is primarily due to a mutation in Prs, which synthesizes the core metabolite phosphoribosyl pyrophosphate (PRPP). Introduction of the COL Prs allele into the antibiotic‐susceptible strain Newman confers tolerance, while

Overlapping functionality of the Pht proteins in zinc homeostasis of streptococcus pneumoniae [PDF]
, 2014 Streptococcus pneumoniae is a globally significant pathogen that causes a range of diseases, including pneumonia, sepsis, meningitis, and otitis media. Its ability to cause disease depends upon the acquisition of nutrients from its environment, including

Respirology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) has a high burden in Asia. These patients are also susceptible to various cardiovascular diseases (CVD). A panel of expert Asian pulmonologists explored the published literature to understand the impact of COPD and CVD on each other and to identify the cardiopulmonary risk factors in the region. The

mBio, 2016 While significant protection from pneumococcal disease has been achieved by the use of polysaccharide and polysaccharide-protein conjugate vaccines, capsule-independent protection has been limited by serotype replacement along with disease caused by ...

Cardiotoxicity during invasive pneumococcal disease.
American Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2015 Streptococcus pneumoniae is the leading cause of community-acquired pneumonia and sepsis, with adult hospitalization linked to approximately 19% incidence of an adverse cardiac event (e.g., heart failure, arrhythmia, infarction).
